This is Farnan Avenue built 1905 as were the nearby local roads by Day & Sons. I have lived here since 1976 and the houses on the western side No'd 2-28 suffered a catastrophic hit by a Nazi V.2 rocket on early morning of 10th Sept 1944. They were never rebuilt as original design. I knew a Mrs Ruby Cave, then a young mother who was bombed out of No 22 and relocated to No 42. She would often reflect on her luck at being in the shelter that night as the bomb fell in the road at the front of the houses and that protected many of the rear garden areas. The person who had the most shock was her husband (Len) who came home later that day to find the house almost missing. '
